Does anyone agree with me...

I was sitting in the waiting room and this woman walked up to me asking all smiles "What does your shirt say?" I said "Michael Jackson".

She just kind of half smiled and walked away. I couldn't figure out what that was about but later I figured she was a Trump supporter thinking that, I, a black woman was a supporter as well.

I looked up Trump's signature and both are similar. I think she thought it was Trump's signature. That is my only explanation for what happened. I have a pic of both sigs side by side on my phone but don't know how to post it.

So does anyone feel I'm right on what this was about?

He was a brilliant artist and a troubled soul, in my opinion. The child abuse allegations against him are also troubling.

She couldn't fully see the signature since I was sitting down. After she asked, I pulled at it to show the full signature, so she didn't know it was Michael's. I really believe she thought it was Trump's. Lot of Trump supporters where I live.

I just thought it odd walking up to someone you don't know asking what tour teeshirt says.
